The darkness was engulfing and seemed to fully consume any spec of light. Any last hope was Without warning water came gushing down throwing itself onto the gagged knife-like rocks. The rocks seemed to slice the water from its many thousands of sharp daggers, embedded all over it. The water came gushing down like a waterfall along the jagged surface of the wise rock. The merciless winds caused the enormous waves to crash and erupt like lava coming down from a raging volcano. It splits like an aggressive wild animal, angered by the vigorous storm.
